History Of Trimbakeshwar 

 

There are two stories related to Trimbakeshwar. There is a story about Simhastha Parva according to Padma Purana.

 

Simhasth Parva 

 

Centuries ago, gods and goddesses used to roam in India. He helped the saints and people living here in times of various hardships, especially the demons who were causing trouble.

 

However, this battle generally resulted in heavy losses to both the gods and the demons. It was decided to settle the issue of supremacy forever. 

They agreed that whoever captures the Amritkumbh (immortal nectar) will be the winner. There was an Amritkumbh (a pot containing immortal nectar) on the ocean floor.

 

The gods were successful in getting the nectar by fooling the demons. 

When the demons came to know about this, they started a violent fight for Amritkumbh (immortal nectar). 

In this sequence, the drops of nectar fell at four places Haridwar, Prayag, Ujjain, and Trimbakeshwar. 

 

Trimbakeshwar is one of the four places where the drops of heavenly nectar fell.

At that time, Jupiter (Guru) had entered the hemisphere of Leo (Leo). And since this planet enters the hemisphere once in 12 years, the Kumbh Mela is organized once in 12 years in the respective regions.
